As I was teaching English I came across a problem... with my Russian. My students wanted to know what a рой was which is a swarm of bees. Then I began to think, стада коров is a herd of cows. Косяк рыб is a school of fish. In ENglish you can find...
pack of wolves
flush of plumbers :)
flock of birds
swarm of bees
parade of elephants
murder of crows
prickle of porupines

What else is there in English OR in Russian, please tell me...
гурт чего?
